I was asked to make a card for a family who performed at a ward party (I was not at said ward party - but I agreed to make the card.) Normally making a card is no big deal because I like to make cards on the computer and use digital supplies. However, I was asked to make a 18 inch by 24 inch card and my computer printer (although wonderful) will not handle that size which meant that I would have to use traditional scrapbooking supplies. OMGosh -- what a nightmare. I forgot the mess that making cards the traditional way could be. Not only that, Remi wanted to "stamp" with me which meant even more mess. Anyways here is my disaster dining table and also the end product. To any of you who wonder if going digital is right for you -- just look at the mess needed to create one simple little (well it is big 14x22 - that is what a poster board folded in half makes) thank you card.

You're right paper scrappin is a mess! I know, I know digital is the way... cute card too!
I admit I love the mess scrappin' way. I do like digital, but I will always be a traditional at heart. The card looks great!
I'm not surprised they asked you even though you weren't there. So where the heck would I get a navajo taco in Cedar???
Eliz again I am so sorry for getting you into this. I should have been over there helping you. I looks great though, but man do I know what you mean about mess. Every time I get this idea about traditional I get crazy. Digital all the way!
The card was great, big, but great! No way am I that creative! Changing the background on my blog is as creative as I get.
